The tour with Jhony and Lana was great! They made sure everything was in order and made sure I felt comfortable. We spotted some orang utans and other monkeys, the food was good, and the overnight place was good as well. The accommodation at Jhony in Bukit Lawang itself is perfect as well, everything you need. Jhony makes sure you get everything that you need, and also helps you out with your further travels.

We like to travel a lot and for sure this is one of the best places we have ever visited. Situated next to the river with the most beautiful views. All the persons working here made our stay very special, making music at night and playing cardgames with the kids. The food also was delicious. We did three different excursions (village tour, jungle trek for 2 days and bat cave) and everything was very well organized. Also from the moment you make the reservation, there is a very good contact with the host for all your questions. We definitely want to return one day.

I have never felt so welcome in my life in a hotel. Adi, Coco, Sarah, Santa, Ellie, and everyone else. You are all amazing people. The amount of work you put in the Cheeky Monkeys and all this while wearing the biggest smile and showing the kindest heart is not to explain in words, only in experience. Cheeky Monkeys gives real meaning to 'Arrive as a stranger, leave as a friend'.

We had an amazing stay at Batu Kapal Guest House! Bayu, Aji and the boys really made us feel at home. The location is truly beautiful, in the jungle with a nice river for swimming. The last day, there were even 3 orangutans in de trees just behind our room! The food was also great, we even got a small cooking class because we liked the BBQ chicken so much :) We will miss this place and hopefully we can come back one time!

Lovely spacious rooms with gorgeous balcony and view. Rooms were very clean with flushing toilets! Easy walk into town where there’s lots of restaurants and a supermarket.

Nicely located in rice fields and with fish ponds. Bayu is an excellent host. He organized everything (airport transfer, overland tour to Lake Toba, jungle trekking) very well. We would like to emphasize the lovely, experienced and super-supportive jungle trek team with Jajang, Dony and Henry. While Janang is very knowledgeable and showed us 7 Orang Utans, some Thomas Leaf‘s Monkeys and Brown-handed Gibbons, Dony and Herny, did everything to take my almost blind wife by their hands and guided her 6 hours through the jungle. They paid as much attention, that she did not stumble and fall. Bayu recommended to skip going south to Bukkitinggi and Padang in rainy saison and consider visiting Pulau Weh/Sabang. We followed his recommendation and it was an unique experience! Terima Kasih Bayu!

This is great place to stay. Aca, the owner, has a cool mission to save the jungle. Yanta, the manager, shares that mission and is a real nature-guy. He is also an excellent host. Edi was our jungle-guide and is a remarkable person. The whole staff is looking after the guests in a very caring way. We miss them already :-)

We highly recommend Cheeky Monkeys as comfy and quiet place to stay in Bukit Lawang. The family run site of Sarah and Agus makes you feel like a family member. Everyone is every helpful, friendly and will give you a smile. The accomodation is clean, bed was large and very comfortable, the room and the towels had a very nice scent. staff helped us with an express wash of our trekking clothes. We had 2 times dinner and breakfast. it was excellent. fresh and well cooked veggie with exotic spices. they offer kitchen classes: at out next visit we will defintly join! Sarah organised a tailormade trekking for us. my husband and me, a professionell guide by the national park team and his assistent. they adjusted the trek to our needs: we are not the fittest ones and the area is steep and sometimes muddy. with the help of our guides we always felt safe and finally saw 3 Orangs on a 4hrs trek. It was great experiences! Overall 5/5 stars! Thank you Cheeky Monkeys!

The brewed us delicious coffee each day and were always up for some nice and interesting smalltalk. The rooms are very comfortable and clean and we especially liked the balcony area to take some coffee and relax. We recommend a stay here!!

    Alek is the most helpful homestay host we have had. He managed to sort out our 3D2N trek the night before we wanted to go and he lent us his bike to travel to an ATM. The location is ideal and lots of nice places to eat right outside. Well worth the price!!
